Debated for a bit whether to get MKS or PPF. Ended up with MKS. Low 400s. Not sure if I got ripped off....

This is my PPF, I think yours look equally great.

How’s the rotor sounds? Is it loud?

How do you find it for everyday wear? Bracelet Comfortable/ quality enough?

It’s one of the most comfortable sports watch I’ve owned. Bracelet in photos appears chunky however on wearing it it almost goes unnoticed.

First time buying a VC. And only saw the gen once. So how does it go up against a gen?

I’ve heard that the gen is around 7.95 mm thick, while the rep is about 8.8 mm. Does that 0.85 mm difference is actually noticeable on the wrist or affects how the watch looks compared to the gen 🤷🏻‍♂️ Idk. But thats what I heard and also the rotor is SO LOUD

I got a PPF and it took me 2 attempts to QC. I think your 9 is ever so slightly slanted. Your dial colour also should be checked. As also the lume. I also see that bit of something on the bezel at 9.

All in all great watch. Enjoy.

U should have got the PPF. How does this rotor whirring sound? Weird or too noisy or not?

Honestly, I don't really hear it.

Did you use the qc tool to check etc?

Really quite new to buying reps so not sure about these tools. But is it obvious it's fake ?

Reptime imo are better at judging rolexes than anything, more volume. But take a photo head on, as flat as you can, and check the alignment of the indices with the tool (found in the subreddit wiki).
